+ Why Was My Submission Form Rejected?

We verify every submission. If your form was rejected, you will receive an email from us with an explanation.

Common reasons for rejection

• Wrong kind of email address: We ONLY accept official school emails. Be careful that you do not accidentally enter your personal email. For more information, see "What Qualifies As An Official School Email Address?".
• Duplicate emails: You attempted to register a guest with the same email address you used for your registration. We do not allow duplicate emails. All registrants and their guests must be an owner of their own school email address. For more information, see "If I Qualify, Could I Register My Guests Too?".
• Unqualified educational program: Qualified registrants are students, teachers and staff of licensed educational programs. Homeschooling, non-educational based non-profit organizations, religous houses without licensed educational programs, and other kinds of companies do not qualify.

+ What Qualifies As An Official School Email Address?

An official school email address is distributed by a licensed educational program and contains the school’s domain in the url of the address. We use school emails to validate the educational program and the registrant’s connection to the program. We NEVER sell or share our registrant’s information with other companies.

+ What If I Don't Have A School Email?

Failure to provide a school email address will cause your submission to be rejected automatically. If you are associated with a school as a student, teacher, or staff member, you should be assigned a school email address. Unfortunately, we do not allow attendees to register as a school unless this information is provided.

+ When Is The Deadline?

The deadline is always the Wednesday before the show at 11:59PM ET OR two days before the show at 11:59PM ET.

+ What If I Missed The Deadline?

The pre-registration deadline is strictly adhered to. We do not accept any registrations after the deadline. We hope to still see you at the show, but we will not be able to provide you with complimentary entry if the deadline is missed.
